Corporate Responsibility

Agriculture has a critical role to play in responding to the global challenge of how to feed a growing population with limited natural resources. We want to contribute to food security by being a force for sustainable agriculture. Corporate responsibility (CR) is part of everything we do – from developing innovative products that help farmers grow more from less to controlling the impact of our operations.

  • This integrated approach to CR is reflected in our website and integrated Annual Review, which reports our business, financial and CR performance.
  • This section of the website outlines our approach to CR issues, our focus areas and gives specific examples of where we’ve made a positive contribution. All relevant performance information is included in our Annual Review.
  • Our Grow More From Less site explains how our products help farmers produce higher and better yields, grow crops that are more resilient in harsher climates, and conserve limited resources.
  • The News center section houses our position papers which outline what Syngenta thinks about a variety of important issues, from animal research and child labor to intellectual property and the impact of crop protection on bees.
  • Socially responsible investing information, such as our inclusion in relevant sustainability indices and the GRI can be found– in the section SRI Information.
